About the Farm
Background
Green Acres Fruit Farm has been a cornerstone of the local community, known for its diverse array of fruits and vegetables, as well as its commitment to low pesticide farming. The farmstand has been a year-round destination for fresh produce and other local goods.
Practices
The farm employs low pesticide methods to grow a variety of fruits and vegetables, ensuring a safer and healthier product for consumers. Free range chickens roam the farm, providing fresh eggs, while honey is harvested from on-site hives in the orchard. These practices highlight a dedication to integrating animal husbandry and crop production in a harmonious manner.
The Rest
The farm offers a 24-week CSA program from July to December, featuring a mix of vegetables, fruits, berries, and eggs. A local baker supplies fresh homemade pies, and a variety of crafts such as jewelry, hand-knit hats, mittens, and baby quilts are available. Additionally, the farm sells seasoned apple wood for smokers, hardwood for fireplaces, and fresh cut flowers during the summer months.
